Battle
the Odds
There
are any number of lessons you can learn by playing Guess
Who. Truly, the fine Parker Brothers did it right…
finally. Their first attempt at social commentary “Where
are all the black people?” concentration was received
less than favorable on the board game circuit. Guess Who
offers every now and then players a most unfair of challenges.
To be black and a women. As soon as the card is in your
hand you feel singled out. The card that is in two narrow
categories by itself. Double the trouble in the game and
far to often in life.

The
parker brothers sought to create a game that subtly illustrated
the social problems of the world by making them the hardest
challenges in the game, from the plight of hat wearing
people, to the pattern bald skinny white guy.

The Axis
of Stevil reminds everyone that even when the odds are stacked
against you and there is only one question that lies between
your untimely game board death and one more grasp at randomly
choosing “Sam” and being correct, remember that
life is golden and things will always turn out ok. To help
you remember this valuable life lesson, the Axis of Stevil
has created the usual array of wallpapers for you to download
and help spread this powerful message of social acceptance
and equality. |
